Any Vinted selling tips?

31 replies

I've been selling on Vinted for a while & managed to make a good amount in the past, but it's just not shifting now! I currently have 130+ items on there & could really do with the money for holiday next week!

Does anyone have any good tips? I'm currently uploading after 'work hours' ie 5pm & weekend mornings, but almost nothing is selling!

It is mainly children's clothes (from 9 yo DS), men's clothes & a few ladies bits. Plus a few random items (can share username if anybody wants to check it out!)

Clear pictures of labels, bundles, and yes remembering the price will double for the buyer once postage/fees etc so you do need to ask for a reasonable amount. I usually put on for a pound or so more than I want so I can accept an offer/ send an offer if someone favourites.

I've just deleted some items and will re upload tomorrow/weekend.

Thanks Magicmagician that's really useful to know.

Right, have literally just had an item favourited. First action I've seen today!

So, dropped the price from £3 to £2.75 & sent a message saying I have lots of similar items available & can do a bundle deal. Too pushy? 🤔

I use Vinted a lot, but I use it as a swap shop, I don't make a lot of money from it anymore as it has become a lot more saturated so the only way of selling and standing out is listing your items a little cheaper than everyone else. Are you listing everything as single items as nobody wants to a buy 1 t shirt as when you factor in postage costs it isn't worth it , unless it is a high value brand of course. Pictures matter, so make sure the items are not creased, against a plain background and presented well. I also wouldn't send a message to a buyer telling them I've reduced an item as buyers who have liked your item will already get a notification to say the price has been reduced so I think its overkill to do both. Good luck
